What's left behind the scenes

  • The house used for filming the final scene, where most of the murders in the film take place, was also used for filming the school in “Halloween: 20 Years Later” (1998).
  • The name of the cinematographer for “Scream 3,” Peter Deming, is written on the camera operator’s chair during the filming of “Stab 3,” the film within “Scream 3”.
  • Throughout the film, the actors and actresses repeatedly talk about the constant rewriting of the script and three different endings for 'Scream 3'. The script for 'Scream 3' was also rewritten many times, and the film's screenwriter came up with three different endings.
  • In the US, the film set a record for the number of theaters on its opening weekend – 3467. In 2001, this record was broken by 'Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone' (3762 theaters).
  • Jay and Silent Bob, popular characters from Kevin Smith’s films, can be spotted as tourists at Sunrise Studios. Seeing Gale Weathers, they mistakenly take her for Connie Chang.
  • The film’s director, Wes Craven, can be spotted in the scene with Jay and Silent Bob. He is behind them.
  • The song 'Red Right Hand' has been used in all three films.
  • During his video message, Randy repeatedly mentions the "Star Wars" trilogy. Carrie Fisher, who played Princess Leia in the "Star Wars" trilogy, had a cameo role in "Scream 3": she played Bianca, the keeper of the studio archive.
  • The bathroom where Sidney finds Angelina during the filming of "Stab 3" is the same bathroom used for the scene where Sidney flees the killer in "Scream".
  • Neve Campbell signed a special agreement stipulating that all scenes with her participation had to be filmed within 20 days. This explains why she is not as prominently featured as the main character as in the previous two films.
  • Shortly before filming began, Courteney Cox and David Arquette got married.
  • Kate Winslet, Shannen Doherty, and Charisma Carpenter were considered for the role of Cici. Ultimately, the role went to Kelly Rutherford.
  • Courtney Cox wore the same green suit as Parker Posey in the first film.
  • All the sets for 'Stab 3' are copies of the sets from 'Scream' because all the 'Scream' sets were destroyed after filming was completed.
  • The person responsible for the special effects on the set of 'Stab 3' is named Stan. This is a possible nod to the legendary special effects creator Stan Winston.
  • Rules for the final film in the horror trilogy: 1) The killer possesses superhuman abilities. He cannot simply be stabbed or shot. 2) Anyone, including the main heroine, can die. 3) The film will have an unexpected plot twist revealing the past of the main character.
  • Compared to its predecessors, the third film featured the least amount of blood spilled – 10 gallons. The first film had 50 gallons, and the second had 30.
  • Wes Craven agreed to direct for the third time, provided that Miramax Studios gave the green light to 'Music of the Heart' (1999).
  • The studio carefully guarded the film's plot, so journalists were not allowed on set. The first screening of the film for journalists was organized just two days before its premiere.
  • Wes Craven shot three different endings and did not tell the actors which one he intended to include in the final cut.
  • The film's original website was entirely dedicated to Sunrise Studios, a fictional studio where 'Scream 3' was filmed. The site also featured filmographies and biographies of the actors who appeared in 'Scream 3', and a list of the studio's future projects.
  • The studio deliberately avoided test screenings, fearing leaks of the plot and numerous spoilers. The actors and crew first saw the finished version of the film only at the premiere.
  • The house where much of the second half of the film takes place belongs to Randall Kleiser, the director of 'Grease' (1978).
  • Ehren Kruger had to rewrite the script urgently after filming had already begun.
  • Patrick Dempsey was cast in the role one day before filming began.
  • Neve Campbell was simultaneously filming 'Scream 3', 'Drowning Mona' (2000), and 'The Five Hearts'. Because her character in 'Drowning Mona' had long hair, she had to wear a special wig for the role of Sidney.
  • Carrie Fisher was dissatisfied with her character's lines, so she asked the screenwriter to rewrite her dialogue and actively helped him with the process.
  • Throughout the film, Sidney wears Greek letters around her neck, a gift from Derek (her boyfriend in "Scream 2" (1997)).
  • Number of corpses: 10.
  • The filmmakers wanted to bring back Jamie Kennedy's character, Randy; it was assumed he had survived the events of the second film. But ultimately, the idea was considered far-fetched. However, Randy does appear in the film: with a message to his friends in a video recording he managed to make in case he became the killer's victim.
  • The gun that Sidney takes from the detective's table is a FIE Titan. When, at the killer’s request, Sidney retrieves the hidden weapon and throws it into the pool, she is holding a Beretta 950 Jetfire.
  • Kate Winslet, Shannen Doherty, and Charisma Carpenter were considered for the role of Christie. Ultimately, the role went to Kelly Rutherford.
  • The house used for filming the final scene, where most of the murders in the film take place, was also used for filming the school in "Halloween: 20 Years Later" (1998).
  • The name of the cinematographer of "Scream 3" is written on the operator's chair during the filming of "Stab 3," the film within a film in "Scream 3," Peter Diming.
  • Throughout the film, the actors repeatedly talk about the constant rewriting of the script and three different endings for "Stab 3." The script for "Scream 3" was also rewritten several times, and the film's screenwriter came up with three different endings.

  • The film's director, Wes Craven, can be seen in the scene with Jay and Silent Bob. He is standing behind them.
  • During his video message, Randy repeatedly mentions the Star Wars trilogy. Carrie Fisher, who played Princess Leia in the Star Wars trilogy, had a cameo role in Scream 3, playing Bianca, the studio archive keeper.
  • The bathroom where Sidney finds Angelina during the filming of Stab 3 is the same bathroom used for the scene where Sidney flees the killer in Scream.
